Occupying an old clapboard-sided island cottage, this Key West-style cafe brings informality and good, inexpensive food to Captiva. In contrast to the island's 15 or so formal restaurants, you can dine here in your bare feet and not spend a fortune for an excellent breakfast, snack, lunch, or full meal. The choice seats are under ceiling fans on the front porch or umbrellas on the brick patio. In hot weather, opt for the air-conditioned dining room. The wide-ranging menu includes salads, hot dogs, burgers, sandwiches, meatloaf, country-fried steak, fish, plus delicious nightly specials. The island's best breakfasts are equally varied, from bacon and eggs to a seafood quesadilla. Musicians perform out in the yard every day -- you might find yourself dancing on the front porch.
